Storage of liquid waste
Thread Content
Colleagues at the company, we put the waste polyester from fiber production, along with a portion of the high-quality ethylene glycol emitted during operation, as well as some hot coal-processed ethylene glycol water, into one tank. Is such storage in compliance with safety regulations? The suggestion is not recommended, as it is deemed unnecessary
The problem is that some of the good ethylene glycol is wasted needlessly. It should be fine to store waste polyesters together with ethylene glycol in water; it’s better if they are stored separately.
How can hazardous waste and dangerous chemicals be stored together? Hazardous chemicals should be stored in dedicated hazardous materials warehouses, while waste materials of this type must be kept in separate waste storage areas. The company’s environmental management system must include strict regulatory requirements; failing to do so constitutes a violation of environmental protection laws, and the environmental protection agency or safety supervision authorities will impose fines or order the suspension of operations as a consequence.
Thank you. I gave the manager some suggestions, and he said it’s fine for light industry \ud83d\ude1c
It’s awkward; I gave my suggestions, but the manager said it’s fine in the fiber industry. My colleague really likes to show off; they don’t listen when told to stack them properly
As long as the two don’t react, there’s no problem. It’s just a waste: lol

Storing hazardous waste and dangerous chemicals together is not a matter of whether or not a reaction will occur; it’s not acceptable even if they are stored in separate containers. You can check on the local environmental protection agency’s website; there’s no exaggeration at all.
It is recommended to store them separately; different hazardous wastes should be kept in separate containers. As for how to handle them later, it should be determined in accordance with the list of hazardous wastes Moreover, what if different hazardous chemicals are stored in the same container and a chemical reaction occurs?
